Hmm, so I've been listening to Indies for a long while, but I only come across some UK bands. I have this horrible fetish with UK bands because their accents are absolutely charming. D:! Name your favorites D:~!

I dont know too many bands either, especially the indie ones.
Okay, let me see if I can remember all the bands I like that are from the UK....

Indie(ish) bands:
-Franz Ferdinand
-Arctic Monkeys
-Hot Chip
-Kaiser Cheifs
-Keane

Other:
-Busted (broke up, though)
-Son of Dork
-Sugababes (I think they're so much more talented than Girls Aloud; and they have better songs as well)
-McFly
-Fightstar (LOL they're out of the loop, being like "post hardcore" or whatever you want to call it, but their lead singer Charlie used to be in Busted, a pop-punk band)

All for now....I think...

A song can take you back instantly to a moment, a place or even a person.
No matter what else has changed in you or the world, that one song stays the same, just like that moment.
